The ongoing political drama in Maharashtra took an expected turn on Saturday after the BJP succeeded in returning to power in Maharashtra with the help of senior NCP MLA Ajit Pawar. 

BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis took oath as chief minister of Maharashtra for the second consecutive term at a time when the talks between Congress, NCP and Shiv Sena over government formation in the state had seemingly reached the final stage on Friday. As the day progressed, allegations and counter-allegations from an elated BJP-led camp on one side and the stunned Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress combine on the other continued thick and fast. 

Sharad Pawar-led NCP swung into action immediately with the party patriarch wasting no time in getting into damage control mode. By Saturday evening, Ajit Pawar was removed as the party's legislature unit leader for joining hands with the BJP without the permission of Sharad Pawar. Ajit Pawar's actions defied the party's policies, said a resolution passed at the legislature wing's meeting, attended by Sharad Pawar.
